34/**
35 * DateIntervalFormat is a class for formatting and parsing date
36 * intervals in a language-independent manner.
37 * Only formatting is supported, parsing is not supported.
38 *
39 * <P>
40 * Date interval means from one date to another date,
41 * for example, from "Jan 11, 2008" to "Jan 18, 2008".
42 * We introduced class DateInterval to represent it.
43 * DateInterval is a pair of UDate, which is
44 * the standard milliseconds since 24:00 GMT, Jan 1, 1970.
45 *
46 * <P>
47 * DateIntervalFormat formats a DateInterval into
48 * text as compactly as possible.
49 * For example, the date interval format from "Jan 11, 2008" to "Jan 18,. 2008"
50 * is "Jan 11-18, 2008" for English.
51 * And it parses text into DateInterval,
52 * although initially, parsing is not supported.
53 *
54 * <P>
55 * There is no structural information in date time patterns.
56 * For any punctuations and string literals inside a date time pattern,
57 * we do not know whether it is just a separator, or a prefix, or a suffix.
58 * Without such information, so, it is difficult to generate a sub-pattern
59 * (or super-pattern) by algorithm.
60 * So, formatting a DateInterval is pattern-driven. It is very
61 * similar to formatting in SimpleDateFormat.
62 * We introduce class DateIntervalInfo to save date interval
63 * patterns, similar to date time pattern in SimpleDateFormat.
64 *
65 * <P>
66 * Logically, the interval patterns are mappings
67 * from (skeleton, the_largest_different_calendar_field)
68 * to (date_interval_pattern).
69 *
70 * <P>
71 * A skeleton
72 * <ol>
73 * <li>
74 * only keeps the field pattern letter and ignores all other parts
75 * in a pattern, such as space, punctuations, and string literals.
76 * </li>
77 * <li>
78 * hides the order of fields.
79 * </li>
80 * <li>
81 * might hide a field's pattern letter length.
82 * </li>
83 * </ol>
84 *
85 * For those non-digit calendar fields, the pattern letter length is
86 * important, such as MMM, MMMM, and MMMMM; EEE and EEEE,
87 * and the field's pattern letter length is honored.
88 *
89 * For the digit calendar fields,  such as M or MM, d or dd, yy or yyyy,
90 * the field pattern length is ignored and the best match, which is defined
91 * in date time patterns, will be returned without honor the field pattern
92 * letter length in skeleton.
93 *
94 * <P>
95 * The calendar fields we support for interval formatting are:
96 * year, month, date, day-of-week, am-pm, hour, hour-of-day, and minute.
97 * Those calendar fields can be defined in the following order:
98 * year >  month > date > hour (in day) >  minute
99 *
100 * The largest different calendar fields between 2 calendars is the
101 * first different calendar field in above order.
102 *
103 * For example: the largest different calendar fields between "Jan 10, 2007"
104 * and "Feb 20, 2008" is year.
105 *
106 * <P>
107 * For other calendar fields, the compact interval formatting is not
108 * supported. And the interval format will be fall back to fall-back
109 * patterns, which is mostly "{date0} - {date1}".
110 *
111 * <P>
112 * There is a set of pre-defined static skeleton strings.
113 * There are pre-defined interval patterns for those pre-defined skeletons
114 * in locales' resource files.
115 * For example, for a skeleton UDAT_YEAR_ABBR_MONTH_DAY, which is  &quot;yMMMd&quot;,
116 * in  en_US, if the largest different calendar field between date1 and date2
117 * is &quot;year&quot;, the date interval pattern  is &quot;MMM d, yyyy - MMM d, yyyy&quot;,
118 * such as &quot;Jan 10, 2007 - Jan 10, 2008&quot;.
119 * If the largest different calendar field between date1 and date2 is &quot;month&quot;,
120 * the date interval pattern is &quot;MMM d - MMM d, yyyy&quot;,
121 * such as &quot;Jan 10 - Feb 10, 2007&quot;.
122 * If the largest different calendar field between date1 and date2 is &quot;day&quot;,
123 * the date interval pattern is &quot;MMM d-d, yyyy&quot;, such as &quot;Jan 10-20, 2007&quot;.
124 *
125 * For date skeleton, the interval patterns when year, or month, or date is
126 * different are defined in resource files.
127 * For time skeleton, the interval patterns when am/pm, or hour, or minute is
128 * different are defined in resource files.
129 *
130 * <P>
131 * If a skeleton is not found in a locale's DateIntervalInfo, which means
132 * the interval patterns for the skeleton is not defined in resource file,
133 * the interval pattern will falls back to the interval "fallback" pattern
134 * defined in resource file.
135 * If the interval "fallback" pattern is not defined, the default fall-back
136 * is "{date0} - {data1}".
137 *
138 * <P>
139 * For the combination of date and time,
140 * The rule to generate interval patterns are:
141 * <ol>
142 * <li>
143 *    when the year, month, or day differs, falls back to fall-back
144 *    interval pattern, which mostly is the concatenate the two original
145 *    expressions with a separator between,
146 *    For example, interval pattern from "Jan 10, 2007 10:10 am"
147 *    to "Jan 11, 2007 10:10am" is
148 *    "Jan 10, 2007 10:10 am - Jan 11, 2007 10:10am"
149 * </li>
150 * <li>
151 *    otherwise, present the date followed by the range expression
152 *    for the time.
153 *    For example, interval pattern from "Jan 10, 2007 10:10 am"
154 *    to "Jan 10, 2007 11:10am" is "Jan 10, 2007 10:10 am - 11:10am"
155 * </li>
156 * </ol>
157 *
158 *
159 * <P>
160 * If two dates are the same, the interval pattern is the single date pattern.
161 * For example, interval pattern from "Jan 10, 2007" to "Jan 10, 2007" is
162 * "Jan 10, 2007".
163 *
164 * Or if the presenting fields between 2 dates have the exact same values,
165 * the interval pattern is the  single date pattern.
166 * For example, if user only requests year and month,
167 * the interval pattern from "Jan 10, 2007" to "Jan 20, 2007" is "Jan 2007".
168 *
169 * <P>
170 * DateIntervalFormat needs the following information for correct
171 * formatting: time zone, calendar type, pattern, date format symbols,
172 * and date interval patterns.
173 * It can be instantiated in 2 ways:
174 * <ol>
175 * <li>
176 *    create an instance using default or given locale plus given skeleton.
177 *    Users are encouraged to created date interval formatter this way and
178 *    to use the pre-defined skeleton macros, such as
179 *    UDAT_YEAR_NUM_MONTH, which consists the calendar fields and
180 *    the format style.
181 * </li>
182 * <li>
183 *    create an instance using default or given locale plus given skeleton
184 *    plus a given DateIntervalInfo.
185 *    This factory method is for powerful users who want to provide their own
186 *    interval patterns.
187 *    Locale provides the timezone, calendar, and format symbols information.
188 *    Local plus skeleton provides full pattern information.
189 *    DateIntervalInfo provides the date interval patterns.
190 * </li>
191 * </ol>
192 *
193 * <P>
194 * For the calendar field pattern letter, such as G, y, M, d, a, h, H, m, s etc.
195 * DateIntervalFormat uses the same syntax as that of
196 * DateTime format.
197 *
198 * <P>
199 * Code Sample: general usage
200 * <pre>
201 * \code
202 *   // the date interval object which the DateIntervalFormat formats on
203 *   // and parses into
204 *   DateInterval*  dtInterval = new DateInterval(1000*3600*24, 1000*3600*24*2);
205 *   UErrorCode status = U_ZERO_ERROR;
206 *   DateIntervalFormat* dtIntervalFmt = DateIntervalFormat::createInstance(
207 *                           UDAT_YEAR_MONTH_DAY,
208 *                           Locale("en", "GB", ""), status);
209 *   UnicodeUnicodeString dateIntervalString;
210 *   FieldPosition pos = 0;
211 *   // formatting
212 *   dtIntervalFmt->format(dtInterval, dateIntervalUnicodeString, pos, status);
213 *   delete dtIntervalFmt;
214 * \endcode
215 * </pre>
